What is 12 add 2?
14
What is 2 plus 12-7 times 4 divided by 2?
2+12-7*4/2 = 2+12-28/2 = 2+12-14 = 14-14 = 0
What multiplies in to 24 and adds to-14?
The numbers are -2 and -12 because -2 times -12 = 24 and -2+(-12) = -14
What does 14- 2 tell an electrician?
12
What is th gcf of 12 and 14?
the gcf of 12 and 14 is 2
Can you turn a 14-2 wire into a 14-3?
The only way to change a 14-2 wire into a 14-3 wire is to physically remove the 14-2 and replace it with a 14-3.
What is the difference between 12 -2 and 14 -2 wire?
Both 12-2 and 14-2 wire have 2 wires in a single cord. Neither contains a ground wire. Size 12 wire is a larger wire than size 14 wire. Size 12 wire can carry more amperage without getting hot and burning up. They would not be used for house wiring or machinery since they do not have a ground wire.
Can you connect 12-2 wire to 14-2 wire together?
You cannot connect 12-2 wire and 14-2 wire together. This can be dangerous, and it will cause issues with the circuit.
Can 12-2 wire be used where only 14-2 wire is required?
Yes the ampacity of #12 is 20 amps whereas the ampacity of #14 is 15 amps, so you are well within the range using #12 wire.
What is the recommended gauge for 12-2 low voltage wire in outdoor lighting installations?
The recommended gauge for 12-2 low voltage wire in outdoor lighting installations is typically 12 or 14 gauge wire.
What is the recommended gauge for 12/2 low voltage wire in outdoor lighting installations?
The recommended gauge for 12/2 low voltage wire in outdoor lighting installations is typically 12 or 14 gauge wire.
Can I use 12/2 wire for outlets in my electrical installation?
No, it is not recommended to use 12/2 wire for outlets in your electrical installation. It is typically used for lighting circuits and not outlets, which usually require 14/2 or 12/3 wire for proper installation.
What is the difference between 12-2 and 14-2 wiring?
The '12' and '14' refers to the gauge of the wire. A 14 gauge wire is used for circuits drawing 15 amps or less; general lighting and outlets. A 12 gauge wire is used for 20 amp circuits, like dishwashers, disposals, and microwaves. The '-2' refers to the number of conductors in the wire. 14-2 is a 14 gauge wire with 2 conductors in the sheath. A 14-3 with ground would have three conductors plus a ground in the sheath, for a total of four wires, and is most often used for ceiling fan wiring and three way switches.
Can you replace a short length of 14-2 wire with a 14-3 wire and just not use the red conductor?
Yes, you can replace a short length of 14-2 wire with 14-3 wire and not use the red conductor. Just cap off the red wire with a wire nut at both ends to ensure it is not accidentally connected to anything. Keep in mind that the unused red wire must still be properly terminated in electrical junction boxes.
Can 14-2 wire be used for outlets in a residential electrical installation?
No, 14-2 wire is typically used for lighting circuits in residential electrical installations. For outlets, it is recommended to use 12-2 wire to handle the higher electrical load.
Can I use 12/2 wire for lights in my electrical installation?
No, it is not recommended to use 12/2 wire for lights in your electrical installation. It is typically used for general household outlets and appliances, while 14/2 wire is more suitable for lighting circuits.
How do you tell what gauge wire you have in your house?
To determine the gauge of wire in your house, look for markings on the insulation or jacket of the wire. It usually indicates the gauge size, such as 14, 12, or 10. You can also use a wire gauge measuring tool to accurately determine the wire gauge.
